Any program that just monitors RFXCOM or similar?

All,

I've been able to transfer almost all my automation needs from HomeSeer to my ISY and Elk, but have one final area that continues to bug me: wireless temp and humidity. I have an RFXCOM and several Oregon Scientific wireless sensors, so hardware is handled. But I can't figure out how to / where to find a PC or Mac program that will just read those devices. Logging would also be great, but not essential. I realize I may not be able to interface with the other automation equipment (although that would be ideal) but at least I could see those temps/humidities on screen.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
 
In the EU many folks utilize wireless home automation using the RFXCOM boxes.  That said there is a software mention here on the CT site for one of those pieces of software.  There is a whole "world" of automating everything with these RFXCOM devices.

I personally gave one little linux flash based touch screen application a try and it worked well relating to a DIY of sorts for the RFXCOM automation.

Here my old long running environmental stuff is 1-wire this or that with some 5 1-wire networks today.  I also have a "few" combo temperature and humidity sensors and temperature sensors wired to the HAI OPII panel.  I do keep the 1-wire mac addresses in a database and still hand write them to a little book such that I do not forget where they are at in the house.
 
I still have this weird innate feeling relating to wireless environmental sensors and batteries that in my old age I will most likely forget where it is that I put the wireless sensors over a period time.  That is me getting old though.  (so experimenting will write stuff down).
